Lyon plans battery tender for AU$1.88bn solar plus storage projects

The highly ambitious solar and battery storage developer Lyon Group has unveiled yet another big project, this time a AU$660 million solar plus storage project in Victoria, adding to its growing portfolio in South Australia and Queensland.

The latest plan for a 250 MW large-scale solar plant, paired with 80 MW/160 MWh of battery storage at Nowingi in north-western Victoria, takes its total pipeline to more than 1,700 MW of solar and 1,000 MW of storage.

But in a new twist Lyon has announced that it is planning a tender for contracts to cover the 640MWh of storage capacity at its most advanced projects in Victoria, South Australia (Riverland) and Queensland (Cape York).
